Premium Member Gigantic Moon

Calm, tropical moon was huge, filling the night skies with sheen;
And seemed to touch green treetops, and wild, songbird scenes.
The moon grazed mountains and jade hills, when I lay dreaming,
In the warm fragrance of midnight, with dim, starlight streaming.

Full moon was in Daylily Meadow, with a dark, mysterious breeze,
And its loveliness nearly touched the ground, in the hours of ease.
All the obsidian night was aglow, with the nebulous, magical light,
For even when none are observing, nature offers charming sights.

Premium Member I Think Of David

Yahweh selects the weak; wasn't he, yet, strong like iron?
Like a daylily, he exposed himself before the Lord.
His flesh was weak; didn't he, yet, fight wars like a lion?
He, as a poet, proved his word was sharper than his sword.

Which poem on earth could be greater than the smallest psalm?
We try to add notations to his great composition.
His failures, to his very self and others, did bring harm.
Didn't God Yahweh allow him to face competition?

His mind changed, like his vague vegetable and fruit salads.
His ethics, like the Indian Qutub Minar, stood firm.
His greatness lies in obeying God's will amidst all hazards.
He did, in each of his thoughts, words, and actions, Yaheh's term

Did he fulfil all that was said about him? I don't know.
David went, I see, doing well as far as he could go.

Premium Member Down the Garden Path

 
aster, astilbe, daisy, daylily
bellflowers bejeweled and foxglove forever
roses robust and hued poppies posh
sunflowers sublime, candytuft, cardinals
hollyhock, hosta, snaps snazzy
primrose precious and sunflowers sublime
I found down the path of a wild garden
